Vapes, chargers, and other “invisible” e-waste are a 9-million-ton problem.::Chargers, vapes, and other small electronics make up millions of tons of “invisible” e-waste each year. Recycling them could recover billions of dollars worth of precious materials.
Sometimes when I see disposable vapes as litter I pick them up and take them to Best Buy, where they have Li-ion recycling.
Most of the disposable users I see are teens.
